Project Life: July 2016

July was a jam-packed month, but I managed to limit my pages to two double page spreads. Madelyn Tyler was born early in July, and her arrival brought Sarah, Adam, and Caleb to Rochester for a week's visit. During that week, Tracy's mother turned 87 and we hosted a birthday picnic for her. The photos of the cousins enjoying one another both in Matt and Betsy's backyard and at the water park are some of my faves.

Once again, there are minimal embellishments. I made a filler card with some patterned paper for Madelyn's birth data, added a few stickers and made another filler card with a wood veneer word that I colored with some Orange Zest ink.

The third page documents the week Tracy's family shared a cottage on Honeoye Lake this summer.

We had a wonderful tour of the Frank Lloyd Wright's Darwin Martin home in Buffalo, and celebrated our 43rd wedding anniversary in Niagara-on-the-Lake. I was delighted to find the teacup "button" which I added with a ticket stub for the "Alice in Wonderland" performance for a filler card. I have a little jar filled with these buttons, and rarely can find a good use for one.
